This is a versatile serum with a slightly viscous texture that's suitable for use all year round. When applied, it gives your skin a subtle, luminous glow. The antioxidant effects might require longer use to become noticeable. While it's not an everyday occurrence, there are occasional instances when my skin experiences a slight tingling sensation. - ji*********Combination SkinSensitive SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedMay 20, 2025
Overall, I thought the tone improvement was effective and had a positive effect. I felt that the price-to-performance ratio was not great and the finishing touch lacked absorbency. - so*****Dry SkinSensitive SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedMay 14, 2025
1. It's extremely good. 2. As someone with very dry skin, I do feel a bit of dryness. 3. My skin brightens quickly and the tone and texture are refined. 4. The antioxidant effects are incredibly good. 5. Those who don't tolerate plant-based oils may have a strong reaction. 6. It's now discontinued, so it's available at a lower price these days. (Until recently, it was heavily discounted on the brand's online store, and now it's cheaper on third-party platforms.) The product contains many plant-based ingredients, so I would have never bought it myself based on the ingredients alone. However, after receiving it as a gift and using it for 2 weeks, I was amazed by the great results. Skin type: Extremely dry and sensitive skin, very thin with lack of elasticity, large pores on the T-zone, no oil on the face, previously diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and rosacea (now cured). While I don't react to all plant-based ingredients, products from brands that heavily promote plant-based formulas generally cause contact dermatitis for me (e.g. Innisfree, The Face Shop, Tarte). Usage routine: Twice a day - cleansing, essence, functional serum, moisturizer. I've been using the functional serum for 1.5 months. Fragrance: It has a strong aroma oil scent, similar to the Clarins Lotus Face Oil (not sure if it's still available). The intense fragrance felt a bit artificial in the light, watery formula, but I've gotten used to it over time. The scent itself is quite pleasant. Packaging: It's in a dropper bottle, and the packaging is quite sturdy without any leakage. I prefer glass containers over plastic, so the glass packaging is better for preserving the product. Texture and formula: [Translated text omitted due to length]The formula is water-based with a slightly oily finish, but it gets absorbed quickly. The application is clean, and as someone with extremely dry skin, I do feel a bit of dryness with this product (my other products in the same routine don't cause dryness, but this one adds to it a bit). The texture is good, but the slightly drying sensation after application is a downside for dry skin types, though it may be great for oily skin. The reformulated version is said to have improved hydration and moisturizing properties, so I plan to repurchase the updated version. Antioxidant effects: Effective for brightening and improving the skin's natural tone and texture This is truly amazing. After just 2 weeks of use, my skin started glowing, and my makeup applied beautifully. I usually like to go out with just sunscreen and no makeup, but even in the harsh lighting of the salon mirror, my skin tone looked so even, bright, and beautiful - I was pleasantly surprised. I find myself looking at my bare skin more often. It's not about fading spots, but rather an overall brightening and clarifying effect on the skin tone. I used the product for about 2 weeks without much impression, but after 2 weeks, I was shocked when I looked in the mirror. Interestingly, the product description had mentioned seeing results in 2 weeks. Another surprising effect - I've always had redness around my nose, and I thought that was just normal since even YouTubers seem to have that. But after using this product for around 2 weeks, that redness completely disappeared, which amazed me. With the overall brightening and even-toning effect, my bare skin looks like it has a tone-up cream on, even without any makeup. I used to do high-dose vitamin C, and my skin would brighten rapidly during that time. The effects of this product are very similar, so I feel confident about its strong antioxidant properties. However, it may not be enough for targeting stubborn spots, so I plan to use this in conjunction with the 5th serum from Numberzin, which is excellent for targeting discoloration. I find that using Numberzin for a while and then switching to this V&A product helps maintain the effects without losing the initial impact. The price is a bit expensive. However, it seems they have sales quite often. If you catch the sale period, it seems possible to purchase it at a fairly reasonable price, and now that it's being discontinued, it can be purchased at a lower price. Due to this reason, in case of a repurchase, I intend to purchase the renewed version. The renewed version is said to have more moisturizing and hydrating ingredients, so please take that into consideration. As it becomes slightly drier, dry skin can use the moisturizer typically used in the summer. - lc*****Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAtopic SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedMay 12, 2025
Design: The matte orange color is unique and luxurious, which I love. The weighty glass container makes it a great gift option too. Texture: It's not a viscous formula, but rather has a light, water-like consistency. Application: Despite its lightweight texture, it feels firming and plumping from deep within after application, which I really appreciate. Price: It's not exactly cheap, but if you buy it during a promotion with a refill included, it's somewhat reasonable. Brightening effect: I didn't notice any significant improvement in my complexion or a noticeable fading of blemishes. - dm******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedMay 5, 2025
You can get it at a great price on Coupang. I'm using it because it's supposed to be good for antioxidants. I have combination dehydrated skin that's sensitive, but it doesn't cause any blemishes, so I keep using it. I'm not sure yet if it's effective for brightening or reducing wrinkles. - yx*******RecommendedMay 3, 2025
Why on earth did they discontinue this...? At first, I didn't think much of it, but with consistent use, my skin gradually became brighter It absorbs a tad slowly. Other than that, nothing really stands out. Not particularly effective for blemishes or skin imperfections - pu****Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedApr 30, 2025
I've been using this for over three years now. I do my makeup in the car every day. This product has completely transformed my dry skin. Highly recommended! It runs out faster than expected, so I have to buy it quite often. That's the only downside though. I always apply it twice. Make sure to pat it in several times when applying. - wo******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedApr 28, 2025
With consistent use, you can notice your complexion becoming brighter. It has a slightly rich feel, so I recommend it for all skin types except oily skin. Due to its slightly rich texture, I don't recommend it for oily skin or those prone to blemishes. - ju*******Dry SkinSensitive SkinInner DrynessRecommendedApr 10, 2025
The lightweight texture absorbs well, and I love how it brightens my complexion! Nothing particularly bad to say, but it's best to buy when it's on sale! 
kh*******Combination SkinSensitive SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedApr 9, 2025The absorption is great, and I tried it to fade blemish marks and dark spots. It definitely takes care of blemish scars quickly! For dark spots, I think I'll need to use it longer to see results. Above all, its deep hydration is excellent. I used to have itchy and tight skin on my forehead and face contours in the afternoon, but after applying this ampoule, there's no deep dryness, and my makeup stays put - I love that! For those who experience makeup pilling, give this a try! Although I'm not usually a fan of rose scents, this one has a pleasant rose fragrance that I enjoyed. With its texture that even adults would appreciate and pretty packaging, it would make a great gift for Parents' Day. I absolutely love the texture! I have beige-colored spots on both cheeks, either dark spots or burn marks from oil, but they didn't disappear immediately. I'll need to use it for a longer period, hoping they'll fade - I'm planning to use it long-term! It's great to apply before moisturizer, and also works well for evening out skin tone before applying cushion foundation. For those with dry skin, you might even try mixing a bit with your foundation!
